Assessing your performance in Krav Maga training: The Grading Process
Progress in any athletic activity is a combination of 3 specific elements.
A clear, progressive training programme
Regular, specific training goals.
Regular assessment and re evaluation of training – gradings.
Being aware of your own progression is hard, really hard. We don’t improve in a consistent or uniform manner. We have plateaus (no change), troughs in performance (often caused by poor attendance, fatigue, injury), and those glorious spikes in performance, that day you were great, it all came together.
This difficulty assessing your own progress is compounded by the fact that those around you are also progressing at varying rates. You have no constant in class nothing consistent to measure your own performance against.
On a technique by technique basis you can assess your performance using the methods in our previous article.
Whilst this approach works well on an individual technique basis, it’s too cumbersome and time consuming to give a larger, overall picture of your performance. This is where you need a skilled coach/instructor and a clear criteria to measure yourself against.
To provide students with this objective measure of performance and progress we use the BKMA National Curricula. The National Curricula provides krav maga students with a progressive, structured route of athletic development and an objective measure by which your own performance can be judged.
The National curricula is integrated into a 4 stage assessment process that is designed to accelerate athletic progress within a progressive structured coaching programme.

Renzo Gracie arrested after bar brawl in New York City
All time legend MMA legend Renzo Gracie turned jiu-jitsu vigilante, in New York last night. The resulting scuffle resulted in a broken arem for door staff.
Whether or not the doorman at the 1-OAK nightclub deserved the Renzo Gracie street fighting lesson, it appears he certainly got one this t Sunday night doing his job in New York City.
Gracie, 47, along with his cousin, Igor Gracie, and an estimated entourage that included five others, were reportedly involved in a bar brawl that sent one man — who was allegedly mounted by the Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace — to the hospital.
Police from the 10th Precinct, according to Sherdog.com, responded to the melee and arrested Gracie along with everyone else in his crew.
Sherdog.com reports:
“According to the witness, Gracie arrived at the club in a group of approximately seven men and immediately went to the front of the line. Gracie then became involved in a confrontation with what the witness described as the doorman. Things escalated from there, as Gracie’s group allegedly squared off with a group of 1-Oak bouncers. According to the witness, Gracie at one point had the doorman in full mount, while another one of his group hit a different bouncer with a construction cone. The fracas spilled into the street, with more punches being thrown. Eventually the police arrived and arrested everyone in Gracie’s party, while an ambulance came for the bouncer who had been mounted by Gracie, according to the witness. It was unclear as to why Gracie and his group were originally upset.”
The bouncer was taken to nearby Bellevue Hospital Center, where he received treatment for a broken arm, according to an additional report from AMNY.com.
It’s unclear at this time if Gracie caused the broken arm. In addition, it’s also unclear what charges, if any, Gracie will have to answer to once full details emerge and the legal dust settles.
I have mixed feelings on this personally. The doorman was doing his job and probably did not deserve top get tangled up in this mess however time and the american legal system will sort this out.
